Abstract: "Veröffentlichung eines Textes, der im Codex Paris. Gr. 1555 A, ff. 5-7 als "epitome tes archaiologias Iosepu" dem Eustathius von Epiphaneia zugeschrieben wird. Der Text ist interessant für die Josphusforschung, mehr aber noch für die Beurteilung der Arbeitsweise und der Bedeutung des Eustathius". "Edition and discussion of a hitherto unrecorded epitome of parts of AJ and BJ in the 13th /14th century Codex Paris. Gr. 1555A, ff.5-7. The author "added to this epitome computations of his own, which he made on the basis of Jewish chronographical records". The MS attributes the next to the sixth century historian Eustathius of Epiphaneia; it is, however, "difficult to discern from the fragments what Eustathius himself may have composed and what was added or touched upon by a copyist".
